How many of Elon’s workers could get paid a living wage for that $56bn?
There are 140,000 employees, so each one could get $400,000. That is WAY more than a liveable wage. He could give every single person in his company $200,000 and STILL have $28B leftover for his bonus. I can’t imagine what it would be like to have a billion, and I’m a pretty imaginative person who makes a lot of money. If someone said to me, “I can give you $56B, or I can give you $28B and 140,000 other people $200,000. You choose.” I would gladly give all of those 140,000 people handjobs by me personally along with that $200k. It might take awhile to give all those handjobs, but I’d commit to it for $28B.
It would take 972 days of 12 hours per day giving 5 minute long handjobs. Roughly 3 years of indentured servitude to get $28B. Worth it.
